Exterior of Gothic-styled buildings

Druid Bremen · March 6, 2004

Right.. I would appreciate some help here, for I've been racking my brains, to no avail. I am designing a map with a Gothic-styled Church Hall inside. Problem is, I do not know how the exterior of such a building would look like. Would anybody be willing to help me with this.....?

Well, your best bet is having a look at gothic churches. If you'd go to the library, you're probably able to find several books on it as well.

Though, curious as I am, can you show use a screenshot of the interior?

Interior of... The map, or the church? It is actually not Gothic. I am just basing my map off some of the Gothic architecture, so it surely is not accurate. And, I don't exactly have the time to go to the library. I also do not know where, and how to start, to search on the Internet. I need to design the exterior of the church first, before starting on the inside, so no screenshots for that.. Would someone kindly refer me to some websites that contain the pictures I require?
